Question
A thin converging lens is formed with one surface convex and the other plane. Does the position of image depend on whether the convex surface or the plane surface faces the object?
✓
Answer
No, If it is a thin lens then focal length is not effected by from which side ray falls.

Answer the following:
What are the forms of energy into which the electrical energy of the atmosphere is dissipated during a lightning? (Hint: The earth has an electric field of about 100Vm–1 at its surface in the downward direction, corresponding to a surface charge density = –10–9 Cm–2. Due to the slight conductivity of the atmosphere up to about 50km (beyond which it is good conductor), about + 1800C is pumped every second into the earth as a whole. The earth, however, does not get discharged since thunderstorms and lightning occurring continually all over the globe pump an equal amount of negative charge on the earth.)

At Deoprayag (Garhwal, UP) river Alaknanda mixes with the river Bhagirathi and becomes river Ganga. Suppose Alaknanda has a width of 12m, Bhagirathi has a width of 8m and Ganga has a width of 16m. Assume that the depth of water is same in the three rivers. Let the average speed of water in Alaknanda be 20km/h and in Bhagirathi be 16km/h. Find the average speed of water in the river Ganga.
